"I wonder from time to time, what it might have been like
to have
a daughter and watch
her grow up from day to day. Watch her test the
temperature
of a pool of water with a skittish toe for the first time and with a
parents
pride watch her pretend to be a butterfly in a school play. I would
suppose
every father blessed with a daughter would give his little girl the
heavens
for her shelter and the stars for her playground, if he could."
